The Heart of the Matter(Live)
I got the call today I didn't want to hear
- I got the call today I didn't want to hear
- But I knew that it would come
- An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
- She said you found someone
- And I thought of all the bad luck
- And the struggles we went through
- And how I lost me and you lost you
- What are those voices outside love's open door
- Make us throw off our contentment
- And beg for something more
- I'm learning to live without you now
- But I miss you sometimes
- The more I know the less I understand
- All the things I thought I knew I'm learning again
- I've been tryin' to get down
- To the heart of the matter
- But my will gets weak
- And my thoughts seem to scatter
- But I think it's about forgiveness
- Forgiveness
- Even if even if you don't love me anymore
- These times are so uncertain
- There's a yearning undefined
- And people filled with rage
- We all need a little tenderness
- How can love survive in such a graceless age
- Ah the trust and self assurance that lead to happiness
- They're the very things we kill I guess
- Oh pride and competition
- Cannot fill these empty arms
- And the work I put between us you know it doesn't keep me warm
- I'm learning to live with out you now
- But I miss you baby
- And the more I know the less I understand
- All the things I thought I'd figured out
- I have to learn again
- I've been trying to get down
- To the heart of the matter
- But everything changes
- And my friends seem to scatter
- But I think it's about forgiveness
- Forgiveness
- Even if even if you don't love me anymore
- There are people in your life
- Who've come and gone
- They let you down
- You know they've hurt your pride
- You better put it all behind you baby
- 'Cause life goes on
- You keep carryin' that anger
- It'll eat you up inside baby
- I've been trying to get down
- To the heart of the matter
- But my will gets weak
- And my thoughts seem to scatter
- But I think it's about forgiveness
- Forgiveness
- Even if even if you don't love me
- I've been tryin' to get down
- To the heart of the matter
- Because the flesh will get weak
- And the ashes will scatter
- So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
- Forgiveness
- Even if even if you don't love me
- Forgiveness forgiveness baby
- Forgiveness forgiveness
- Forgiveness forgiveness
- Even if you don't love me anymore
